EVENT DESCRIPTION

Every 6 minutes, someone in the UK starts to lose their sight and as a result, many employees struggle on without admitting they have a problem which often leads to stress, anxiety, depression and lower productivity.

This free solution based webinar will demonstrate how, with adjustments and appropriate equipment, employees who acquire a visual impairment can continue to work and develop their careers.

We will cover:

  • How to maintain good eye health
  • Common symptoms
  • Eye conditions and their effects
  • The emotional impact of receiving a diagnosis
  • Legal obligations under The Equality Act
  • Early intervention and workplace assessments
  • How the working environment can assist employees
  • The range of adjustments and equipment available
  • Assistive technology options
  • The benefits of holistic support
